Claims (12)

  1. Kurbelgehäusegespülter Zweitaktverbrennungsmotor (1) mit einer zusätzlichen Luftzufuhr (2), die an seinen Überführungsleitungen (3) angeordnet ist, wobei die Überführungsleitungen (3) ein Kurbelgehäusevolumen (4) und einen Überführungsdurchlass (5) verbinden und die zusätzliche Luftzufuhr (2) zu den Überführungsleitungen (3) über eine Luftleitung (21), welche mit dem Zylinder (9) verbunden ist, und über die Zylinderwand (29) angeordnet ist, welche zu einem Luftzufuhrdurchlass (22) führt, der über einen Aussparung (24) in einem Kolben (7) für bestimmte Kolbenpositionen mit dem Übertragungsdurchlass (5) verbunden ist, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass zumindest eine Aussparung (6, 24) im Kolben (7) vorliegt, die unterhalb eines Kolbenrings (10, 11) angeordnet ist, und ferner ein Stromkanal (12) vorliegt, der die Aussparung (6; 24) und das Kurbelgehäusevolumen (4) verbindet, wobei der Stromkanal (12) alternativ außerdem als die Aussparung (6) fungiert, und der Stromkanal (12) im Kolben (7) angeordnet ist und die Aussparung (6; 24), oder der Stromkanal (12), falls der Stromkanal (12) als die Aussparung (6) fungiert, zum Zusammenpassen mit dem Überführungsdurchlass (5) für bestimmte Kolbenpositionen zum Schaffen einer Verbindung zwischen dem Überführungsdurchlass (5) und dem Kurbelgehäusevolumen (4) über den Stromkanal (12) angeordnet ist.
  2. Kurbelgehäusegespülter Zweitaktverbrennungsmotor (1) mit einer zusätzlichen Luftzufuhr (2), die an seinen Überführungsleitungen (3) angeordnet ist, wobei die Überführungsleitungen (3) ein Kurbelgehäusevolumen (4) und einen Überführungsdurchlass (5) verbinden und die zusätzliche Luftzufuhr (2) zu den Überführungsleitungen (3) über eine Luftleitung (21), welche mit dem Zylinder (9) verbunden ist, und über die Zylinderwand (29) angeordnet ist, welche zu einem Luftzufuhrdurchlass (22) führt, der über einen Aussparung (24) in einem Kolben (7) für bestimmte Kolbenpositionen mit dem Übertragungsdurchlass (5) verbunden ist, dadurch gekennzeichnet, dass zumindest eine Aussparung (6, 24) im Kolben (7) vorliegt, die unterhalb eines Kolbenrings (10, 11) angeordnet ist, und ferner ein Stromkanal (13) in Verbindung mit dem Kurbelgehäusevolumen (4) vorliegt, der in einer Zylinderwand (29) des Motorzylinders (9) angeordnet ist, und die Aussparung (6, 24) zum Zusammenpassen mit dem Stromkanal (13) sowie dem Überführungsdurchlass für bestimmte Kolbenpositionen zum Schaffen einer Verbindung zwischen dem Überführungsdurchlass (5) und dem Kurbelgehäusevolumen (4) über den Stromkanal (12) angeordnet ist, wobei die zumindest eine Aussparung (6, 24), wenn sich der Kolben (7) von der unteren Totpunktposition anhebt, zuerst den Überführungsdurchlass (5) über den Stromkanal (13) mit dem Kurbelgehäusevolumen (4) verbindet und danach den Überführungsdurchlass (5) mit der Luftleitung (21) verbindet.

  5. Motor nach Anspruch 4, wobei der Stromkanal (12) außerdem als Aussparung (6) fungiert und derart seitlich im Kolben angeordnet ist, dass er für bestimmte Kolbenpositionen mit dem Überführungsdurchlass (5) zusammenpasst.
  6. Motor nach einem der Ansprüche 1, 3 bis 5, wobei sich der Stromkanal (12) in der Form von zumindest einer Öffnung (12) innerhalb der ersten Aussparung (6) befindet.
  7. Motor nach einem der Ansprüche 1, 3 bis 6, wobei die Öffnung im Kolben in der Form eines einzelnen Lochs (12) mit einem Durchmesser von 4 mm, jedoch unter 10 mm und vorzugsweise über 5 mm und unter 8 mm ist oder eine einzelne Öffnung mit anderer Form, jedoch mit einer entsprechenden Fläche ist.
  8. Motor nach Anspruch 7, wobei eine Mitte der einzelnen Öffnung im Kolben transversal von einer Längsmittelachse des Kolbens und Zylinders versetzt ist, die durch die Mitte des der Kurbelwelle (16) mit über 2 mm, jedoch unter 15 mm und vorzugsweise über 4 mm, jedoch unter 12 mm verläuft.
  9. Motor nach Anspruch 2, wobei der Stromkanal (13) derart angeordnet ist, dass er zur Zylinderwand (29) hin in seiner gesamten Länge offen ist.
  10. Motor nach Anspruch 9, wobei der Zylinder (9) durch Druckgießen ausgebildet ist und der Stromkanal (13) eine Form einer offenen Rille (13) aufweist.
  11. Motor nach einem der vorhergehenden Ansprüche, wobei zumindest eine erste Aussparung (6) und eine zweite Aussparung (24) im Kolben vorliegt.
  12. Motor nach Anspruch 2, wobei der Stromkanal (13) als eine im Wesentlichen längs verlaufende Leitung in der Zylinderwand (29) angeordnet ist, die zumindest ein offenes Ende (15) aufweist, welches sich im Wesentlichen seitlich neben dem Überführungsdurchlass (5) befindet.
